Added on July 21, 2009, 11:46 amoh yea forgot to mentioned...but there is a few sellers recommending me this 2 brands....boss me 20 and zoom g2.1u..so wat you guys think bout this two models?
Some guys love Multi FX while some old skool people will argue that analogs stomp boxes are the game...
Well to be truly honest with you, before answering ur question, let me first ask you about the type of music ur playing...Its kinda waste to purchase everything in the market really if you just want to play some typical rock or heavy metal....
Personally for me, my prference would be an overdrive pedal....Be it from Boss, Line6, Korg, Tube Screamer or the Zakk Wylde ZW-44 signature pedal from MXR...I use it to gain my amp which keep in mind, also has an overdrive knob...I hate distortion pedals, i dunno why, but maybe its just me...I prefer the sound of an overdriven amp for riffs and for solo, an overdrive pedal to kick the tone a bit screechier....
Also, for me, I cant live without a compressor/sustainer...I use to have a Boss blue colored box which adds a bit of sweetness...
Delay box also can increase the your creativity, ONLY if you know the limits of the usage...
In terms of Multi-FX, I used to own PodXT Live and jammed around GT-8 with some Korg Toneworks AX1000.... Loved the PodXT the most...second would be the GT8...
